[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 1959085, member: 101791"] I had a 6.5 x 20 leupold on a 308 Norma Mag. I was working up a load for that rifle. Next thing I noted that I was hitting to the right and would continue to move to the right as I shot groups of 5 shots. Finally figure out the scope wasn't holding it's zero. Replaced the scope with a 3.5 x 10 leupold and ended that problem. Sent in the scope and they corrected the problem. No Charge either. I had scopes that wouldn't adjust. I seen new scopes (not leupold) coming of a box that didn't work either. I use mostly leupold scopes and it seem that when set up the scope to zero at 100 yds that the adjustment doesn't move until after a round is fired from the rifle then it corrects. I start out with bore sighting @ 25 yds. Then shot @ 25 yds, then go to 100 yds. I have tap the scope with an empty shell case and that doesn't seem to help much either. I put another round down range checking the round placement on the target. SSS [/QUOTE]
